The u-blox EVK-NINA-B1 board enables development of applications for the u-blox Bluetooth low energy module NINA-B1, based on the Nordic nRF52 Bluetooth low energy SoC. The module combines Bluetooth 5 radio, NFC and Arm® Cortex®-M4 with FPU processor on a single chip optimized for ultra-low power operation. The kit includes a NINA-B1 module mounted on the development board, a quick start guide, an NFC antenna, a USB cable, and Bluetooth antenna. The kit is available in two versions, either with U.FL coaxial connector for connecting to the external antenna or with an on-board antenna on the module.

This application transmits a heart rate value using the Bluetooth SIG Heart Rate Profile. The heart rate value is provided by the application itself, not by a sensor, so that you don't have to get a sensor just to run the example.

This example creates a BLE beacon: a method of advertising a small amount of information to nearby devices. The information doesn't have to be human-readable; it can be in a format that only an application can use.
Beacons are very easy to set up: the code for all beacons is the same, and only the information you want to advertise - the beacon payload - needs to change.
